The company now offers a small yet economically viable service offering accredited psychotherapy services to children and families. The company focus continues to be providing Psychotherapy services, establishing its reputation locally and broadening the reach of the company. From September 2024 psychotherapeutic work with children and families continued. The use of Zoom during period of Covid isolation had introduced new ways of working and enabled those moving away to University or on International placements to continue their therapy remotely. Covid experiences continue to impact on the emotional needs of clients at this time. Lost hours in education, isolation and the fear associated with the possibility of loved ones dying from Covid had impacted on many children, families and young people. It has become clear there are long term effects on the resilience of some young people and returning to normality remains hard for many. At the same time common presentations, for example the death of a parent or parental divorce had been made more difficult for clients to process and move through during Covid times. In addition some children born during or shortly after Covid lockdowns are now experiencing behavioural, social and emotional challenges as they enter nursery and school. Parents are often very anxious about their children and need psychotherapeutic support with their parenting role. Cases continue to be generally more complex. Throughout the year the company made available 12 psychodynamic psychotherapy sessions a week for children, young people and parents. When necessary the therapist liaised with GPs, local schools, social workers and the local authority. In most instances therapeutic interventions were long term, some lasting over a year. Some in need of high levels of multi-agency support were assessed and then referred to more appropriate intensive medical provision. Some of this occurred without charge as the preliminary assessment made immediate referral on necessary. Two families were able to access therapy at a reduced rate. Those working in schools and childcare whom the psychotherapist advised were also emotionally challenged by their own experiences during Covid restrictions and those of the children they care for. They still need additional, often informal, short term support. At times the psychotherapist consulted with a school and after school club free of charge. Workshops were run for 1. all parents on how to support their child when they transfer from nursery to school (60 families) 2. working parents on how to help your child settle in after school care (12 families) The psychotherapist investigated a complaint by parents about a conflict between a playworker and a child. Following this training was provided for 1. all play workers in relationship to successful behaviour management. 2. One playworker on managing challenging situations at work.

The demand for psychotherapeutic work with individuals and families and the nature of the problems being brought to therapy continue to evidence that demand for support remains high. This continues to demand liaison with GPs, schools and a professional network of child and adolescent psychotherapists. Referrals came from other professionals or word of mouth.
